My throat is dry, my voice is shaking. It feels alien to me, as if it isn’t my own. It doesn’t sound like me. It sounds childlike. Fearful. I am uncomfortable. My solar plexus feels as if it will implode and somehow take me with it. How can I still feel so afraid? I feel [...]

It’s funny how sometimes a person walks into your life at precisely the right time and says precisely the right thing. This morning, a lady called Monica walked into my living room. Monica is Spanish and has just moved to Lausanne from Madrid. Her husband and 18 month old daughter will be moving here in [...]

Presents are wrapped, balloons tied up, everything is ready. So why am I crying? Tomorrow my first born, my little angel girl, is 3 years old. She went to creche today, dressed in her favourite outfit of jeans, grey and pink polka dot top, white fluffy coat and Hello Kitty trainers. We took cakes for [...]
Insult My Beloved Twitter, Insult ME…(Or #Twisps)
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Commentary, Dailies, Laughs, Plugs, Thanks on March 25, 2010 | 4 Comments »
This sounds like the start of a rant. It’s not. But I would dearly like to explain to those people* (who describe Twitter as a “total waste of time” or “a website for really self-absorbed arseholes”, but have never opened a Twitter account or if they have, spent very little time on it and expected [...]
Spoiled Rotten

This week saw me and The Utility celebrating our four year anniversary (from the day we met, not from the day we married. I remain a concubine in the eyes of the Swiss, at least). Yes, it is indeed FOUR WHOLE YEARS since I paid £70 and picked up a Jason on www.Match.com. I did [...]
Spoon Rage

Breaking news…. Earlier today, poor Spoon Cow found himself in the middle of an altercation between two others. There were only two eye-witnesses, who claim not to have seen exactly what happened, but arrived on the scene to find him slumped on the floor. The authorities are trying to trace those who were involved. Eye-witness [...]
Spoon Cow Returns!
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Laughs on November 24, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I am thrilled to say that Spoon Cow has returned to our little Pod of Happiness here in Villeneuve. He is somewhat dishevelled, looks a little dirty and smells strange. But he is here, that’s all that matters. I have given him a “nosebag” and he is quietly troughing. I have told the kids to [...]
Our New Additions: Sam and Sophi
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Dailies, Laughs on November 11, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I am very proud to announce two new beautiful additions to our little family. Yes, two. It really has been quite a shock for us all. Sophie and Sam recently arrived through the threshold of our little “Pod of Happiness” here in Villeneuve. I was against going for a larger family initially, on the basis [...]
Flash Forward: A Very Really Actually True Phenomenon
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Laughs on November 3, 2009 | 2 Comments »
Yesterday, in Villeneuve, Switzerland, a mysterious event caused people who were eating fromage frais to simultaneously lose consciousness for 137 seconds. Luckily, I wasn’t eating fromage frais, so was able to capture this extraordinary sequence of events on film…

I May Not Be A Lady…
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Commentary, Dailies, Laughs, Love, News, Plugs, Sex, Thanks, Twitter on July 16, 2010 | 6 Comments »
Recently, a very dear friend of mine, Olivia Mackinder, asked me on Twitter what my latest blog post would be about. I responded thoughtfully, “Femininity, Judgement and Listening.” “Quite an epic then!” She replied. She wasn’t wrong. The truth is, there is so much going on in my life right now that I do not [...]
